TRAGUS PEIRCING!! Help!!!?
okay so i got my tragus peirced like roughly 8 months ago.. for the first month or so it was fine then a bump started forming on the front and back and they still have not gone away. i was putting salt water on it like 3 times a day.. some vitamin E oil.. and sometimes it would be smaller.. sometimes bigger.. but never went away. i went to my peircer and she said i am not a chemist and i dont know the perfect proportion of salt to water so i need to use H2Ocean 3 times a day and clean it with provon soap everyday. she told me it was hypertrophic scarring or whatever. ive been using the h2ocean everyday and it does nothing.. but i havent gotten around to buying the provon yet.. it just feels like nothing i do will make it go away!! i want something that will actually work! oh yeah and she said not to put hydrogen peroxide or neosporin

You can dab some tea tree oil on it every couple of days, or alternatively use a chamomile teabag as a compress.

Apparently tea tree oil gets rid of hypertrophic scarring.
